Deep, Earthy, and Traditionally Brewed
Harvested from birch forests in Quebec, Canada, our Wild Crafted Chaga offers a rich, dark infusion with remarkable depth and character. Often referred to as the “King of Mushrooms,” Chaga has been enjoyed for generations across northern forests where long winters and rugged landscapes shaped a culture of nourishing, slow-brewed beverages.
Unlike delicate herbal teas, Chaga brews into a bold cup with notes reminiscent of roasted cacao, forest woodlands, and mild coffee. The result is comforting, caffeine-free, and satisfying any time of day.
Whether you're exploring functional mushrooms or simply searching for a flavourful alternative to coffee, Chaga delivers a uniquely grounding experience.
Origin
Our Chaga (Inonotus obliquus) is sustainably wild-harvested from birch trees in Quebec, Canada.
Growing naturally throughout the circumboreal forests of the Northern Hemisphere, Chaga has a long history of use in Siberia, Scandinavia, Eastern Europe, and northern Indigenous traditions, where it was commonly prepared as a slow-simmered decoction.
What Makes Chaga Unique?
Unlike culinary mushrooms, Chaga grows as a dense, dark conk on living birch trees. Over many years, it has developed a concentrated profile of naturally occurring compounds, which has made it the subject of growing scientific interest.
Today, Chaga is appreciated by tea lovers, mushroom enthusiasts, and wellness-minded drinkers for its rich flavour, traditional heritage, and naturally caffeine-free character.

Brewing Guide
Traditional Chaga Tea
-
10g Chaga per 1 litre water
-
Simmer gently for 2 hours.
-
Strain and enjoy
Short on time? A gentle rolling boil for approximately 20 minutes will still produce a rich, flavourful infusion.
One of Chaga's most remarkable qualities is its reusability. The same pieces can often be brewed three to four additional times while continuing to produce a satisfying cup.
Continuous Simmer Method
For a traditional northern-style preparation, keep a pot gently simmering throughout the day, topping up with water as needed. This method creates an ongoing supply of rich Chaga tea and extracts maximum flavour from each batch.
